He escalated the arms race to the point that the Russians died trying to keep up. Thus finally putting an end to the cold war. Nuclear arms numbers have been dropping since he accomplished this. The Debt we acquired during this time was due to a Democratically controlled Senate and Congress who attached everything under the sun to his legislation.

Probably the most questionable thing he got into was the Iran-Contra Affair. Laws were broken and low-level people were blamed. No one knew how much Reagan was involved , but he was the President and was likely "sleeping at the switch" or else trying to get around the law. (see the related links for more information)

The Iran-contra affair was the biggest black mark on his administration. His exact role in it is not clear but it was a lapse on his part to let it happen.
